-a chilling lofty person, a chilling anecdote.

The day before Tomb-Sweeping Day in April every year is called Cold Food Festival. The origin of this festival is related to a minister named Jie Zhitui of Jin State in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Zhong Er, the son of the State of Jin, was exiled 19 years later, he returned to his own country and became the king of Jin Wengong.

Jin Wengong rewarded those who followed him through the hard times, but forgot to recommend them. Jie Zhitui once cut off the meat on his thigh and gave it to Jin Wengong.

Jie Zhitui's mother said, I asked for it, too. I will comfort whoever dies. You are so kind to the king, why don't you ask for a reward? Who are you waiting for death in such poverty, and why?

Jie Zhitui said that since I know that others' greed for work is evil, it is even worse to follow suit, so I will complain. It's just that if I don't eat, I'll never get the salary of Jin State again.

So Jie Zhitui took his mother to live in seclusion in the mountains.

Later, when Jin Wengong found out, he went to Jiezhitui. The way the king found someone was strange. Yamakaji was released because everyone said that Jiezhitui was a dutiful son. According to human nature, even if Jiezhitui doesn't want to go out of the mountain and is not afraid of death, he will definitely run for his life behind his mother's back in order not to hurt him.

The fire has spread for dozens of miles, and it will not go out for three days, nor will it be pushed out by opinions.

After the fire went out, people went into the mountains to look for it and found that Jiezhitui was burned to death with her old mother.

It is said that Jin Wengong named this mountain as a sacrificial place, saying that he would use it to commemorate his mistakes and show those loyal and kind people.

In order to show respect and memory for Jie Zhitui, Jin Wengong pardoned people. On the day when Jie Zhitui was burned to death, no fire was made and no cold food was eaten. This was the Cold Food Festival.

It is also said that on the second day of the Cold Food Festival the following year, Jin Wengong went to Mianshan in plain clothes to pay homage to the willow pushed by Jiezhi, and found that the dead willow was actually resurrected. After talking about the lofty ideal of pursuing political clarity all his life, he named this Qingming willow tree in Vitamin Tomb-Sweeping Day.

As a result, Jie Zhitui became the first person in China history to celebrate the anniversary with others, and one person monopolized two festivals.

At this point, everyone seems to be very happy. The king is a good king. He can change what he knows, but he can't forget his virtue. A courtier is a good courtier, who insists on elegant exercise and would rather die than get dirty. Courtiers are righteous, and kings are affectionate. A king with great achievements and a courtier with high morals and integrity have all been recorded in history and passed down as eternal stories.

However, this story always makes people feel chilling.

Jie Zhitui can serve the monarch when his master is hungry. Why can't he give up his paranoia when his mother is in danger? The story of Jie Zhitui was bought with his own death, but in the end it was in vain in his mother's desperate efforts.

Jie Zhitui is neither a loyal minister nor a dutiful son. His paranoia made the king unable to change even though he knew it was out of date. He always carried the blame and let his mother be buried with his so-called honor.
